Home remedies like tea tree oil and crushed-up aspirin can be effective ways of treating premenstrual breakouts, while green tea can reduce acne by killing bacteria and decreasing inflammation.
Rose water contains anti-inflammatory and sebum control properties. To use it effectively, use either cotton balls or spray bottles with it directly onto your skin.
Green Tea
Green tea contains polyphenol, an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compound with proven effects against oily skin conditions. Research shows it reduces acne outbreaks while soothing irritation in both its topical and ingestion forms.
As well as using it to reduce dark marks caused by acne and long-term sun damage, soaking skin with this serum may help to prevent hyperpigmentation altogether.
Green tea can be an incredibly powerful natural ingredient when combined with other potent natural ingredients, providing a safe and effective alternative to over-the-counter or prescription treatments. Our Clear Skin Routine utilizes its power in two products made with green tea: Cleanse (our vegan face wash) and Treat (an acne treatment gel containing salicylic acid for clearing pores of blockages). Green tea’s soothing effect helps soothe irritated skin while the soothing properties may even make the texture feel smoother!
Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is an effective skin healer and natural anti-inflammatory, with compounds that help clear dark spots and reduce acne scarring. Aloe can be taken directly from its plant source or incorporated into skin care products like gels, creams and ointments as leave-on treatments while cleansers and sprays may work better when part of an overall skin care routine or combined with other natural treatments for acne.
Aloe vera plants, being succulents, store water within their leaves to allow them to survive in dry and unstable climates, making it an effective natural treatment for dry and damaged skin caused by sunburn. Glycoproteins present in aloe vera also speed healing time while encouraging new cell production; furthermore they help lighten existing acne scars while also helping prevent new scar formation by reducing inflammation.
Honey
Honey has antibacterial and soothing properties that make it a beneficial beauty treatment. It can reduce inflammation and heal acne lesions. Raw, unpasteurized honey offers the greatest therapeutic value; Manuka honey from New Zealand stands out as particularly powerful due to methylglyoxal that enhances its healing powers – providing superior wound and burn healing abilities as a result.

Honey can help in clearing blackheads and other forms of acne caused by clogged pores. However, it should be remembered that honey cannot cure or prevent future breakouts on its own; although it can kill some of the bacteria responsible, honey will only recontaminate your face with more acne causing bacteria if applied with unwashed hands – therefore always wash before and after using honey on your skin!
Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar has become an indispensable beauty tool due to its numerous health and skin benefits. Apple cider vinegar can also act as an effective spot treatment for acne as its natural alpha hydroxy acids exfoliate skin while antifungal properties help kill bacteria that causes acne breakouts.
Honey can help soothe an oily complexion. Simply apply directly with cotton balls or spray directly over the entire face; or mix honey in and create your own mask!
As ACV is highly acidic, dilution with water is key. Furthermore, using unfiltered varieties that include their “mother” can give your skin more nutrients and enzymes, providing it with essential support against acne. You can add ACV to steaming water in a bowl to enjoy a facial steam that will open your pores while dispelling excess oil that leads to breakouts on the face and help combat acne-causing bacteria.
